September 2010 ACT Reading Discussion

<p>^i am not bad at the ACT. I got a 32 last time w/ minimal prep.</p>

<p>Thank you. <strong>takes bow</strong></p>

<p>^Why are you saying “thank you”?</p>

<p>Shouldnt you be saying “your welcome”?</p>

<p>Or how about you’re welcome? :P</p>

<p>Can anyone answer the question about the last passage that asked why the narrator mentioned the teeth being small in the first paragraph? I put because it showed that they decayed over time.</p>

<p>^ I think it was to contrast the smallness of the teeth with the largeness of the impact it had. </p>

<p>What do you guys think -2 will be? 34 or 35?</p>

<p>^I agree with thankyou4flying</p>

<p>^^ Yeah, that makes sense. I bubbled it with probably 5 seconds left, so, I was rushing.</p>

<p>err i never said it wasnt angrily, it was an except question. mass girl denied the fact that those words were part of a question.</p>

<p>This is an answer Bangli friends,am i right?</p>

<p>I put that that guy was in love with the girl instead of interested. I thought that he was thinking about her so much that he seemed to love her. Did anyone else put this. If I chose again I would put pleasently interested, but it seemed like he was obsessed with the girl.</p>

<p>^I actually put that!! But i was scared to say it. I put that Gogol was “overwhelmed with love”
That’s a much better answer than “pleased interest” because he was constantly thinking about her. He was overwhelmed.</p>

<p>The question specifically asked for his feelings after dinner.</p>

<p>^^^it clearly states it in the passage as well</p>

<p>^can you find it for me?</p>

<p>can someone please recreate the question that said something like “which of these was not an effect of blah…” or “which one of these was not a cause of blah” (it was the one where snow and ice or something was a choice)</p>

<p>I cannot remember what i put as i had to guess, im assuming that im wrong but it would be nice to get a little luck</p>

<p>I’m joining the “I didn’t see the ‘EXCEPT’” club in the fitful question.</p>

<p>I put haphhazardly</p>

<p>^that’s what i put RAlec lol but i think we’re wrong.</p>

<p>^ Yeah, you’re wrong. It was most definitely angrily.</p>

<p>The answer to how the Bengali guy describes his relationship to the girl was like his cousins in India. It was stated explicitly in the passage.</p>
